Always thot it was essentially when people started to take Rawk 'seriously' as (potential) Art. I guess that's not descriptive. Classical influences ~ aspirations.
Concepts / Concept Albums (I've landed on the Medium Is the Massage here: The Concept was that Albums are Albums - a thing itself not just a collection of trax.) The Explorers' Room program on the Drummer stream has made explicit how far ahead Lounge & Exotica actuality were of Pop~Rawk in this...
Then there is the hybridization of Jazz & Rawk - another way of bringing complexity, musical accomplishment & 'seriousness' into the Popular arena... & probly the beginning of thinking in terms of Fusions for most of us. I think Wynton Marsalis had a good point that historically - Rawk is a branch on the Jazz tree in fact. Endless things could be said about this...
A Folk element - certainly a strong natural instinct (so to speak) in the UK one should think - another way some intricacy, musical technical ability - & a sense of deeper resonant Meaning can all come in...

I am drinking a Princess Mary's Pride Cocktail. Applejack, Dubonnet, dry vermouth 2:1:1. Pretty nice! And I assume Princess Mary is proud of me.

This Tongue in Cheek sounding good in my mind.

Maybe you could just possibly make a case for it being just a tiny bit self-obsessed, up its own bottom, high on its own supply...
...but the net result usually seemed to turn out fun (at least for me as a listener).
Sometimes, though, events were tragically on the nose:
After the Spartacus album, Helmut Köllen left Triumvirat to start a solo career. Two years later, he died of carbon monoxide poisoning when he was in his car, in the garage, listening to his own compositions on the car's cassette player.

...' music approached the condition of "art", and the studio, rather than the stage, became the focus of musical activity, which often involved creating music for listening rather than dancing '...
That's something I've always related to with it : enuff complexity it rewarded focused listening - & reveals more with repeated listening.

Never seemed like it to me.
Prawg & Punk both Underground - other then commercial mainstream from where I sat.
There's the Bowie - Eno - Iggy sort of connections. Prawg & NewWave actually having some perceived simpatico...
So I'm intrigued by this distinction with ArtRawk.
Punk is like dADa after all ...that's Art. TheRamones are exquisitely *designed*.
Tho dADa aspired to be AntiArt...
Among the Ideas that Prawg sometimes espoused were Social ones ...tho I can't think of much that was overtly Political ? The Collective seems a natural association... Various bands tried to live it as they conceived it...
